Claims.
The object of my invention is to provide a rotary spindle for winding machines which will greatly facilitatethe progressive winding of packages of fish line, twine, thread, ribbon, or the like, on.
A further object of my invention is to provide a rotary spindle carrying a longitudinally adjustable sleeve releasably held thereon, said sleeve being provided with means for releasably securing a core thereto in order that it may be quickly and easily removed after successive -packages have been wound thereon.
My invention comprises, generally, a rotary spindle, a sleeve slidable lengthwise only thereon, and means for yieldingly holding the sleeve in different positions along the spindle, said sleeve being provided with means for releasably securing a core thereto to permit easy removal thereof, when desired.
Practical embodiments of my invention are shown in the accompanying drawing, in which Fig. 1 represents a front elevation partly in arrows and showing the core holding means in engaged position; v
Fig. 4 represents a detail view partly broken away to show the core holding means in disen gaged position;
Fig. 5 represents a detail view of a modification of the core holding means shown in Figs. 3 and 4;
Fig. 6 represents a modified form of my inven- 45 tion;
Fig. 7 represents a section taken on the line VII-VII of Fig. 6, and 1 s Fig. 8 represents a modified form of the embodiment shown in Fig. 6.
A spindle I is rotatably supported at one end in side frame 2 of a winding machine, said spindle I being adapted to carry the sleeve 3 thereon and having a longitudinal groove or channel 4 extending from the outer end inwardly, approxi- 55 mately the length of thesleeve 3. The spindle I section of one embodiment of my invention showis also provided with recesses shown in the present instance as circumferential grooves 5 spaced along the periphery at predetermined intervals.
Sleeve 3 is bored to receive and be supported'by spindle I, approximately the outer half of said 5 bore being enlarged to lighten the sleeve at the outer end. Said sleeve is adjustably mounted on spindle I and is held against rotation thereon by means of a tongue 8 adapted to slide in the longitudinal groove or channel 4 in the spindle. Means 10 for holding sleeve 3 in predeterminedpositions alongspindle I comprises a spring pressed dog 1 carried thereby and adapted to engage the spaced circumferential grooves 5 as the sleeve is slid longitudinally along the spindle.
This hand bar 8 is provided with longitudinal vertical slots I2 adapted to receive the upper ends of levers 9 which are pivoted therein on pins I3, the lower ends of said levers 9 being swingably mounted in the groove I II on 'pins I4. Also mounted in each slot I2 is a core engaging device shown, in the present instance, as a disc I 5 which may be provided with either a solid or serrated cutting edge. Bar 8 is provided with a suitable handle I6 and also has its under surface cut away at predetermined intervals I! to furnish clearance for pins I4 when said bar is in a lowered position.
In Fig. 6 the core engaging device is shown as a knife blade I8 which is mounted along practically the entire length of sleeve 3 and positioned to engage the inner surface of a core I9, it being understood that this blade may have either a solid or serrated cutting edge.
It will also be understood that the spindle I may be driven by any well known or approved means (not shown herein) through the gear 29 fixed thereon.
In operation, presupposing a plurality of core sections are to be wound: The cores I9 are slid on over sleeve 3 on which shoulder I I acts as a stop. When the desired number of core sections have been put on sleeve 3 the handle I6 is pushed, and the bar 8 carrying core engaging devices I! is moved inwardly and radially outwardly by the throw. of, the swingable levers 9 until the edges of the core engaging devices I5 impinge on the inner surfaces of the core sections, thereby securing the core to the sleeve in a 5 position for winding packages thereon. Then the sleeve 3 carrying core i9 is slid on. over spindle l, tongue 6 of sleeve 3 sliding in the longitudinal groove or channel 8 of spindle 8, until,
ata desired point, the end of spring pressed dog I engages one of the circumferential grooves of spindle l. The spindle carrying the sleeve and core or cores is then driven by any well known or approved means (not shown herein) through the gear 26 fixed thereon to wind a package. When this package has been completed, sleeve 3 is moved longitudinally until the tip of spring pressed dog ll engages the next succeeding circumferential groove 5 and is thus positioned for winding another package. The above operation is repeated until the desired number of packages has been wound. Io permit removal of the completed package unit, handle it is pulled, moving the bar 8 outward and radially down, thereby disengaging discs I5 from the inner surface of the core l9 when endwise removal of the unit may be easily accomplished.
When the form shown in Figs. 6, 7 and 8 is used, the core is pushed .on over sleeve 3 and knife blade l8 mounted therein. Said blade engages the inner core surface and holds same in position for winding a package thereon. Sleeve 3 may be positioned longitudinally, as above described. Removal of the package unit is accomplished by pulling same endwise from the sleeve.
It will be understod that in the use of either embodiment of my invention the sleeve 3 'may be supplied with a core or cores either before or after having been placed on spindle I.
It will also be understood that winding may be commenced at any predetermined point of the core, held by sleeve 3, since the longitudinal adjustment of the sleeve may be-accomplished merely by pulling or pushing same until the spring pressed dog 1 snaps into a circumferential groove 5.
It is evident that various changes may be resorted to in the construction, form and arrangement of the several parts without departing from the spirit and scope of my invention, and hence I do not intend to be limited to the particular embodiments herein shown and described, but what I claim is:
1. In a package winder, a rotary spindle having circumferential grooves, a sleeve slidable lengthwise only and adjustable along said spindle, means for holding the sleeve on the spindle including a spring pressed dog positioned to coact with said circumferential grooves, a core slidable on the sleeve, and means for releasably holding the core on the sleeve, comprising swingable members provided at their outer ends with core penetrating elements and a hand bar for bringing said elements into and out of operative positions.
2. In a package winder, a rotary spindle having circumferential grooves, a sleeve slidable along said spindle, means for holding the sleeve on the spindle carried by said sleeve and adapted to coact with said grooves, a core slidable on the sleeve, and means for releasably holding the core on the sleeve, said means being mounted wholly on the sleeve and including swingable members provided at their outer ends with core penetrating elements and a hand bar for bringing said elements into and out of operative positions.
3. In a package winder, a rotary spindle supported at one end only and having circumferential grooves, a sleeve substantially the length of the spindle and slidable lengthwise only over the free endthereof, said sleeve carrying means adapted to coact with said circumferential grooves for holding said sleeve in predetermined positions on the spindle, a core slidable on the sleeve, and means for holding the core on the sleeve. I
4. In a package winder, a rotary spindle supported at one end only and having circumferential grooves, a sleeve substantially the length of the spindle and slidable lengthwise only over the free end thereof, a core slidable on the sleeve, means for holding the core on the sleeve, other means for holding the sleeve from turning on the spindle, and means for holding the sleeve 7 in different spaced positions along the spindle.
said last named means comprising a spring pressed dog positioned to 'coact with the grooves on the spindle.
5. In a package winder, a rotary spindle supported at one end only and having circumferential grooves, a sleeve substantially the length of the spindle and slidable lengthwise only over the free end thereof, said sleeve carrying means adapted to coact with said circumferential grooves for holding said sleeve in predetermined positions on the spindle, a core slidable on the sleeve, and means carried by said sleeve for holding the core thereon comprising a blade fixed in the periphery of the sleeve substantially throughout its length.
